In Godwin's 1796 list for 1774, added in smaller letters, not in 1794 version
In Godwin's autobiographical notes (Bodleian Library microfilm Duke MF 75) he wrote "metaphysical correspondence with Evans" which comes after "Lowestoft - Howe" and so the correspondence dated to 1777. The nearest Richard Evans, by date, in the Surman Index lived 1737-1824 and was minister at Appledore Devon from 1759-1819 so this one may have been his son
Thomas Evans and his wife Janet are well covered by Ian McCalman in his excellent book Radical Underworld. Evans first appeared in LCS records in 1795, first as a delegate from Div 40 and elected to the Exec Cttee 10.9.1795. Alexander Galloway was described as his brother in law (probably by Francis Place but I haven't searched for the exact source yet). Galloway had a sister Janet born 24.10.1777 but I could find no record of her marriage. It is likely Evans and his wife were not keen on the marriage ceremony, but this was also probably true of Alexander Galloway whose marriage to his…
